Despite having left the manufacture in 2019, Marco Lang is still a passionate watchmaker and […]
Innovation is often presented in a highly demonstrative way. An excess of pride, some would argue. More often than we’d like, innovative solutions in watchmaking are launched in concept-like pieces, where the inventiveness of the mechanics is echoed by a bold, avant-gardist design.
